** Positive Sumcaster ** (my /firstdraft ) I don't think I heard the phrase 'positive-sum' before web3. And I never knew what it meant before Farcaster. You could say it's 'everybody wins,' but I think it's more correctly that 'normally' (in zero sum) there is a pie of resources & we fight for it. If I get 10%, you won't. In positive-sum, it's not just that we all get some pie, but that we are increasing the pie size through our collective resources & efforts. We could list regular positive-sum efforts on FC, but this week highlighted it in 4K. I didn't see the 'Farcaster Crowdfund' mini app created by @nicholas & @seedclub until @bertwurst.eth did the fundraiser for @klusya 's Lada. And then the explosion. I saw someone joke, 'When did we become GoFundMe?' But it struck me that this is the expression of positive-sum. @anemale.eth is suffering w/ Jungle in surgery. @ifeoluwafavour desperately needs a phone for work & gets it! And numerous others I can't think of atm. conclusion below ⬇️

cont'd from above... I'll be honest, as an individual, it's overwhelming & tough to know what you can afford to support. But that's kind of zero sum thinking. As a community, the pie is getting bigger and more resources are going on than would have otherwise. And it's great to see & be a part of that kind of community.

This is precisely it. You always want to help to the max, but most often, if not always, you simply can't. But with only a little part of your weekly warpcast reward, or your received degen tips, or your degen tip allowance, or, or, or, you can contribute. It's not just these two dogs, and that phone, @crystalhearts has raised money through donations and degen tips and rewards with which life-saving equipment has been purchased. This community has literally saved lives. Of dog and men. It's incredible, and I am very proud to be part of that. Most important message though: every little bit helps. 1 USDC, 1 Degen, 1 hunt applause. You can contribute. Always.
